Shemale porn industry is on life support

[pantybulge69]

i don't think i still have heard valid argument why TS porn is on "life support."what is awfully boring porn to one viewer is good porn to another. It's in the eyes of the beholder. there's a few solo scenes but there's also plenty upon plenty of interaction scenes. Funny how someone mention tired of seeing the same performing guys in TS porn and i don't know if that has to do with few available professional male performers, if they can handle bottom-scenes than others, contractual bind with key
TS- producing studios (White ghetto,devil films,Channel 69, etc.) My attention has been so much on the girls that i never paid that much attention to the faces of the guys.and excuse me for asking but isn't the video view stuff on shemaletube,hamster,Youporn,Redtube, etc. excerps from the very DVD films we previously watched ?

What i think thats sucks a bit about the TS porn industry is the pace of work for a model that has no solo site, which i think is the reason of condom use. You might only shoot 1/2 scenes a month if you live in the area of a photographer, its less if you do not. Add b/g scenes and it gets worse, so why risk it for the 1 actual sex scene in 1/2/3 months time.

Gotta disagree. Just google the guy and you get "fearless sexual pioneer Joey Silvera..." If that doesn't sum him up then I don't know what does.

Dropped off alot? Have you seen Rogue 37? His scene with Genesis is amazing imo, easily the standout of the dvd. You have to consider Joey's work as a whole, and when you do it's beyond outstanding. The man himself is legendary for simply carrying on so long. When you say something like "I am no longer a fan of Joey Silvera because his work is no longer outstanding," you not only must have ADHD, but you're kind of a jackass for expecting stars and rainbows out of a mere mortal.

that's for proving my point. there are so many different tastes that as tranny porn expands...it actually just caters to one segment of the audience more than others. joey lost me as an avid fan a while ago. that doesn't mean he isn't still popular...it just means that as he continues to make his brand and style of porn, some people love him and others can do without him.

So...while the statement that the tranny porn industry is on life support isn't accurate, it is at a point where I find it splintered and difficult to get what I am interested in. That alarms me as a consumer.

I think it is accurate, but its also accurate for the adult industry as a whole, not just one segment of it.

Companies are going bust everywhere, i know one company who has got rid of around 80 people over the past 2 years and will soon be filing for bankrupcy - and they are a HUGE name in the business and have been for over 30 years.
Its affecting everyone from the top right through to the bottom.

you are totally right about that and its something the average porn buyer doesnt even consider. Someone else also mentioned earlier that when a "model" can get $1000 for escorting why make porn when you get paid a lot less for doing the same thing?

so porn isn't a strong commodity to invest in? I was sure for long term growth, it was a safe bet.

Jay let me and Kimber use those scenes for our sites because he's a sweet guy who wants us to succeed. Originally he was just shooting that scene of me and Adrianna as a favor to me, but he loved it so much he paid me for the scene & it was a content trade. I don't have DVD distribution and it makes me really happy that scene is available on DVD.

am i going to be the only one to point out that the dvd that so many of you are heralding as awesome just rehashed 2 scenes that were up on solo sites for a while???

kimber and christian as on her site already.
mandy scene with the ggirl was also on her site as well.

doesn't anyone see a problem with that? it lessens the quality of the dvd since, at least to this subscriber, 2 scenes are "dated"

that's the problem with dvd releases...there is no way that they can keep pace with websites.

on the same vein...when was the last grooby/yum/pornstar/japan dvd not just a rehash of the website material?

this to me, despite the exclusive dvd only scenes in Jay Sin's release, is indicative of a major issue in porn today.

All this speculation. Bah.

I seem to keep finding ways to convince people to make porn with/for me & knock on wood, I still have not run afoul of the law, so it is working for me.

I truly believe that if a girl keeps a positive mind frame, doesn't get wrapped up in drama, dead ends, or competitive self loathing, then the sky is the limit for what she can achieve. Easier said than done, but its my opinion on porn.
